Tamulpur (Assam) [India], July 4 (ANI): Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma has called for extensive beneficiary outreach to achieve complete saturation of the government's flagship schemes, which have been launched over time, according to an Assam CMO statement.

He made this remark while chairing a review meeting to assess the implementation of welfare schemes at the DC office in Tamulpur.

Reiterating the State Government's commitment to public welfare, the Chief Minister emphasised the need for extensive beneficiary outreach to ensure that these flagship schemes achieve their intended objectives.

He also mentioned that he has been visiting all districts of the Bodoland Territorial Region to assess the on-the-ground impact of these initiatives, which aim to promote financial inclusion, foster self-reliance among the youth, and empower women.

Reviewing the implementation of Orunodoi 3.0 in Tamulpur district, the Chief Minister said that the earlier two phases of the scheme covered altogether 20833 beneficiaries, while under Orunodoi 3.0, this number will be enhanced to 59 thousand in the district. With regard to CMAAA, Mukhyamantrir Mahila Udyamita Abhiyan, Eti Koli Duti Paat and ration card distribution, the number of beneficiaries under these schemes will also be similarly increased in the district, he added.
